THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED Rick's Restaurant Review

: This small, unpretentious frame house is a cozy place for a quick lunch when touring the historic Gold Rush-era town of Dahlonega. Art by the Rev. Howard Finster, a famed north Georgia folk artist, adorns the walls. Far better than most restaurants in such places, Ricks deals in freshly made food that, even when it misses the mark, still demonstrates caring and an effort above the crowd. Pay attention to the daily soups; our hearty potato soup was full of flavor and rich. Bread is the partially baked stuff, but its not bad, and comes to the table with a balsamic/olive oil dip thats better for greens than for bread. Ask for butter. Salads at lunch look like a good deal, although the burgers will tempt us on our next visit. The wine list is a constant work in progress, and offers an amazingly adventurous variety, with plenty to choose from by the glass.
